What Vid card are you using?

Postby Winke » Mon Dec 06, 2004 2:50 pm

Hey guys I use the latest GeForce 6800 GT and I have to reboot every 3 hours of play time because the game gets slugish on me. I am just curious what are you guys using? and are you having any problems?

Radeon 9800

the graphics remain fine on highest settings for extended periods of play. the game is just hard on the resources is all, it may be your RAM not your card.

that does sound like a RAM issue. If a game is not coded very efficiently, bit and pieces of junk can get left over in the RAM as stuff gets unloaded (memory leak) if you have more RAM you can allow the game to "leak" for a longer amount of time =)

you could "use" more, but it wouldn't be worth it for WoW.

wait until a game that needs it more comes out.
